unthinkable

it is difficult to help people whom you know does not trust your capability as a person. How would you gain trust when they themselves have lost theirs. I have so much love to give but it hurts when you humble yourself for the sake of others because of their pride.

It's even more difficult when you go higher in you career, because there will always be people who will shot you behind your back and will always try to pull you in whatever way they can. Why is any kind of industry so dirty? so unfaithful? so shattering?

how will you face religious people who have been trying to portray they are one? people who reads the bible but will read you as well? How can you make life happy by people who surround you? people whom i wanted to drown into the ground and crash in whatever way I can.

Career is always a test, it's a test of patience, faith and most of all kindness.

I thank God for giving me such a patience but I keep on praying to give me more and more..

For the past few weeks, our country has been recovering from the smash of "ondoy" and "pepeng". I was, for quite sometime, was disabled and dumbstruck by the uproar of our fellow filipinos for food, clothes and other needs. It's better to see it yourself, than just telling a tale..

My father said, the last time it happened was in 1958. No one knew that after so many decades, It could happen again. I could go on and on with stories of my relatives and friends, yet, my stories are not enough to tell you how difficult it is for the others to recover.. specially now that the others lost almost everything, others lost everything while more of the victims lost a family member.

I realized, that, at any point in our lives, in our most ordinary day, you can just lose anything that you have, and worse, lives could be gone.

Our country, need more prayers. We pray for stregth and courage, and that, we could recover fully from the tragedy.

*we ask you father, to keep us safe all the time. In your mighty name, oh jesus. Amen and Amen.

just missing you

I miss everything about you, though the sun shines and it sees we are together.

I miss everything about you, though the moon sees us together.. all night... laughing, caressing, touching and kissing.

the moon lights so bright that I can't take my eyes off you, my heart wants to explode just looking how lovely you are..

I just love baby... I just love you.

unfaithful.....

There are times that you don't know when to hold on.
There are times that you don't know how to keep it.
You thought you have given all, but it's not enough to make him give it all.

You thought everything's getting right, but just found out that it is even worse.

now I am in the middle of chaos, so rotten and confused where to go.....

my heart is shattered even more... more and more each day that I am making myself so far away from love..

love .. so complicated, like a stab that pierce even my soul.


when can you be faithful?

Birthday Sadness

The first time in my life I felt so alone was my 26th birthday.

I used to spend my birthday, in fact, from the eve of my birthday with my family. Yet, now, I am too far to be with them physically. I am now sitting on my office chair and tip tapping on my laptop.

I just thank the Lord for another healthy year, I wanted to focus on all positive areas of my life, but this thing going on for the rest of the day makes me feel so sick. so unfocused. Today isn't extra ordinary, my birthday is just like the days of the past. unfocused, sad, unhopeful. It is the irony of life after all. I guess, what is important is that, I gained a year, more wise and more smart.

It's just that, though God just sent me a message this morning, he knows how I wanted to spend my day giving glory to him. just like how I dreamed of it.

It's just birthday sadness,... it will come to pass anyway..

*but still, i thank the Lord for one great year.. and a wonderful family as part of the package.

one step backwards

Today is somewhat weird for me, i woke up so refreshed then all of a sudden i feel so gloomy and tired. Just a few hours ago, I was eating with my better half while his phone keeps on ringing. I understand that there are matters that you really need to attend to. Yet, I realized that there are matters that you have to take slowly.. like eating.

Yes.. eating! because, well aside from the scientific explanation that it is always best to chew our food slowly so that our body would be able to digest our food, I believe that the best moment to share talks with your family is during meals. I just feel so sad that there are pressing matters that we don't want to avoid during meal times, but we always have a choice.

one step ahead or backwards?

Bits and Bytes

Yesterday, I was in a room full of IT people, I am talking about really brilliant people who will change the world, well in fact, who are changing the world.. NOW.

I never thought that there are platforms ever innovated and invented meant to change systems, lifestyle or even the platforms on making our lives even paperless. Platforms meant to interface with other systems to make our lives even better.

Our team was invited to present our brands, I was a little nervous because I am not 100% IT, but at least I understand how systems work. Also, I was the youngest in the room, explaining an IT curriculum as if I was the one who developed it. It was amazing because, I see the potential of this field as I relate it to my career as a Marketing/Sales Person.

I was sitting in front, same seats as the other presenters, the VPs and CEOs.. and suddenly I realized that this is want I want, pursue a career in marketing/sales involving IT.

With information technology, there could be glitches, but IT can make things work through bits and bytes...

A Prophesy

9:10AM – Mnla - Iloilo

At times when I travel just by myself, a blow of many dreams like omen gets through my mind.

When I walk inside the airport and see people rushing to the gates of the plane, I see faces of excitement or…. anxiety. ? I don’t know how each people feel, all I know is that many of us inside the airport have dreams unfinished, anxieties to address, dreams to fulfill.

I get inspired, really inspired to write when I look at the window of the plane and look several feet below; discover the forms clouds which cover the houses and bodies of water. Why inspired? I relate it to our dreams. The distance of the plane and the ground separated by the clouds are like dreams we always wanted to finish, yet, there are limitations. There are plenty of ways to uncover our dreams, the thing is, we need to learn not to ever ever quit. There are dreams unfulfilled but are meant to be finished.

It is the desire of every human being to become rich, to become famous, to become the boss they always dreamed of, maybe a businessman, or the next Henry Sy or Lucio Tan…. But for these things to happen, we have to learn to become passionate with the things we do. Based on statistics, the characteristic common to all successful people is PASSION. Without it, our actions will never produce very good results.

Passion is an art, and we can only learn the art if we are whole heartedly devoted to our dreams. Dreams will always be there, will always be a part of our everyday lives, some fulfilled, some yet to be fulfilled and some yet to be discovered… the thing here is, whatever dreams we have, just be passionate about it and you are making a prophecy of the person you will yet discover… yourself.

6:51PM – Iloilo - Mnla

Update: I’m still in the airport, my flight is 45minutes delayed. I have a choice now, to be frustrated or not to become frustrated. … hmm.. and so I choose to be not to… life is about waiting after all

Love? I thank God for it

Today I learned that what keeps relationships intact is communication. Without it, love is not authentic. Communication brings faith, and these two are the products of love, and love alone.

At times, people will just keep their mouth shut than conveying what they feel for the person they love. More so, keep it for the rest of their lives. In my case, I don’t intend to keep it, it’s just that, I just want to say things out loud when I am ready, but at the end of the day, I still commune. Some people would just bluntly express what they feel, but some would wait for the perfect time. While others forever. Whichever way, it is always important to have courage to tell people what you feel, for it always worth it. And I do believe in that.

As I keep on exchanging stories with friends, I learned that broken relationships root, of course, from different situations. Broken relationships happen because of different circumstances. But the very thing common to it all, is the failure of any of the couple involved tokeep each other and failure to fight for the love they feel. Hence, making the love called forever “not so” forever

. On one note, when love is replaced by hatred, that is the time, love becomes irrelevant. Relationships are always complicated, sometimes, even more complicated that we thought. But what is important is that you let the other party know where you are coming from, how you feel and what both of you can do about it… you love each other after all… it’s love that matters to each..

At the end of the day, while I’m sipping coffee at the nearby street, I realized that the gift of love hypes the feelings or emotions and make us float. Love? I thank God for it….
